Article 1

I find beavers to be very interesting animals. This
articles provides some very interesting information regarding to the
beavers population and lifestyle.

This article list many uses the beaver has to nature,
which includes how they create the world's most valuable ecosystem
and how they are the cause of the survival of many endangered
species. A beaver's dam has more uses then water control, it is able
to filter the water and remove the toxins so water can be cleaner in
the wet lands after it passes through the dam.

Beavers will usually mate by the age of three and have
one mate for life. The first litter will usually have only one baby
but after the first they can how up to four at a time. The beaver
population won't over populate because beavers will only mate once a
year. Also the beavers are not a main food source for any animal. But
beavers may be attacked by anything from bears to dogs to birds.
Unfortunately the most common killer of beavers is trapping which in
my opinion shouldn’t even happen.

I found this to be a very informative article and I
would recommend it to anybody wanting to learn about beavers.
